2022 Acura RDX Remains Atop the Podium with New Styling, More Features and Available Long Beach Blue Pearl Paint

  • The best-selling SUV in its segment since 2006, #rdx is restyled with an even more distinctive and sporty exterior, quieter and more premium interior
  • Standard tech now includes wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration, and Amazon Alexa Built-In
  • Retuned suspension and Integrated Dynamics System make it the most comfortable and dynamic #rdx yet
  • Sporty #rdx A-Spec® now available with Advance Package, broadening the appeal of one of Acura's most popular trims
  • Expanded color palette adds Phantom Violet Pearl, Liquid Carbon Metallic and Long Beach Blue Pearl – available exclusively on the limited-production PMC Edition

Featuring refined styling, a dramatically quieter cabin and a retuned suspension, the 2022 #acura #rdx is the most dynamic, comfortable and refined 5-passenger SUV in #acura history. Making its debut at the #acura Grand Prix of Long Beach in striking Long Beach Blue Pearl paint, the 2022 #rdx lineup is expanded with the availability of a new top trim, combining the sporty style of the highly popular #rdx A-Spec® with the premium features of the Advance Package. The 2022 #rdx will begin arriving at #acura dealers nationwide in early November.

A hand-crafted limited-production 2022 #rdx PMC Edition will be available at launch. Each 2022 #rdx PMC Edition will be adorned exclusively in a stunning Long Beach Blue Pearl paint with Orchid Milano leather interior, both colors shared with the electrified 600-horsepower NSX Type S supercar. With production limited to just 200 units, it will be Acura's most exclusive PMC Edition yet.

"RDX has been an incredible success for #acura, with more than half a million sold since it was first introduced in 2006," said Emile Korkor, assistant vice president of #acura National Sales. "The new 2022 #rdx is the best it has ever been and further proof of Acura's commitment to deliver exciting premium performance products based on our unique DNA."

RDX's turbocharged 272-horsepower 2.0-liter VTEC® 4-cylinder is one of the most powerful standard engines in its class. It's paired with a smooth and responsive 10-speed automatic with standard Sequential SportShift paddle shifters. Acura's signature Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD®) with true torque vectoring is available on all #rdx grades and standard on the Advance Package and PMC Edition.

Refined New Exterior Design
Drawing inspiration from the fourth-generation #acura MDX, the Diamond Pentagon front grille of the 2022 #rdx features a new thinner, more sophisticated chrome surround. With broad aggressive forms and a larger air intake, its new front fascia also is similar to MDX and makes the #rdx appear wider and more powerful. LED fog lights, which are standard on A-Spec and Advance Package models, as well as the PMC Edition, are highlighted by a new chrome trim.

For a more distinct appearance from the rear, the 2022 #rdx receives a reshaped rear fascia with cutouts for the new sophisticated rectangular dual exhaust finishers. The #rdx A-Spec® continues to standout with large-diameter round exhaust finishers in a gloss black finish.

All #rdx models come with either 19-inch or 20-inch alloy wheels. #rdx features a 19-inch 10-spoke #design standard, while #rdx with Technology Package wears similar wheels with a machined face and Pewter Gray accents. The #rdx with Advance Package features a sporty new 5-spoke machined finish 19-inch wheel #design. #rdx A-Spec models are equipped with 20-inch alloy wheels with Shark Gray finish. On the #rdx A-Spec with Technology Package, a Shark Gray split-five-spoke #design is used, while the new for #rdx A-Spec with Advance Package features an all-new 15-spoke wheel #design.

All 2022 #rdx models are available in a new Liquid Carbon Metallic, while Phantom Violet Pearl is offered on #rdx models equipped with the Technology and Advance Packages. Also new for the Advance Package equipped models are power-folding exterior mirrors.
